Escape to Maslina: A Croatian Island Getaway

Picture sun-kissed shores, crystal blue water, and a luxurious stay at a five-star Relais & Chateaux property on the island of Hvar. The winner and a guest will be whisked away for three nights in a Panoramic Room at Maslina Resort, a stunning retreat perched above Maslinica Bay with chic, contemporary design and a sense of place that makes every moment feel special.

From the moment you step into the resort, you’ll be enveloped by sea views, refined comfort, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Each morning brings a fresh start with a delicious breakfast, while the evenings invite sunset strolls along the shoreline and cocktails by the water. And the award includes a practical touch: a £300 voucher to cover return Split flights and Hvar foot-passenger ferry crossings for the winner and guest, making travel as seamless as a ferry glide across the calm Adriatic.

This is your chance to unwind in style, discover the hidden coves and vibrant towns around the island, and savor the generous hospitality that makes Croatia so beloved. Whether you’re drawn to the dramatic coastal scenery, the island’s sun-drenched beaches, or the delicious regional flavors, Maslina Resort offers a perfect stage for a memorable escape. The prize must be taken before October 15, 2026, subject to availability and excluding July and August, so you’ll want to plan a sunlit getaway that fits the calendar and the tides.

Imagine waking up to a panoramic view of Maslinica Bay, enjoying a leisurely breakfast with a sea breeze, and spending your days exploring medieval towns, tranquil coves, and vibrant local markets. The resort’s elegant design blends modern luxury with a strong sense of place, inviting you to unwind and revel in moments that feel both effortless and extraordinary. Your days could be filled with leisurely strolls along the shore, poolside relaxation, fine dining with Croatian flavors, and leisurely boat trips to nearby islands. This competition is your passport to a dream Croatia experience, where every detail is chosen to make you smile, relax, and remember why travel is such a joyful adventure.

Take a little time to imagine the stories you’ll tell when you return home: the vibrant sunsets over the Adriatic, the taste of fresh seafood, the warmth of island hospitality, and the thrill of knowing you’ve won a slice of this sun-soaked paradise. This is your invitation to dream, and your chance to turn that dream into a memory you’ll treasure for years to come.
